The deployment of the Infinity will mark the company’s return to Egypt with planned overnight visits to Alexandria, while shoulder season sailings to Greece and Turkey will give guests a chance to beat the crowds at sites in Athens, Santorini, Kavala, Rhodes, Mykonos and Ephesus. For the summer 2028 season, the Infinity will be joined in Europe by seven additional ships from Celebrity’s fleet, including the Celebrity Xcel and the Celebrity Ascent. The deployment represents the company’s largest season in Europe.

The Celebrity Infinity kicked off its year-round operations in Europe in early 2023 after repositioning from a winter season in South America, offering a mix of Mediterranean and Canary Islands cruises concentrating most of its operations in the Aegean and the Greek Islands. In 2026, the ship’s deployment includes visits to destinations in Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, Spain, Croatia, Montenegro, Italy, France, Portugal and Morocco. The ship experienced technical issues earlier this year leading to cancellation of an 11-night cruise.
